Tommy Mays
Overview
A professional saxophonist/flautist Tommy has performed across the United States, Europe, Asia, South America, as well as on the Tom Joyner Cruise.

He's available for weddings, receptions, studio sessions, trade shows, and corporate events. He provides hours of jazz, R&B, pop tunes while you mingle and/or dine. Tommy has a one man band setup, but can provide a 3- 4 piece ensemble if desired. He provides all the equipment needed; you just sit back, relax and let him do all of the work!

We had the pleasure of having Tommy perform at our networking event, and he truly went above and beyond! He was incredibly attentive, kind, and professional from start to finish. His music set the perfect mood and atmosphere for all our guests. Everyone enjoyed how amazing the saxophone sounded throughout the evening. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Tommy for any event!
